Details About Author:

Ada Lovelace (1815–1852) was an English mathematician and writer, best known for her work on Charles Babbage’s early mechanical general-purpose computer, the Analytical Engine. Often regarded as the first computer programmer, she wrote detailed notes on the machine, including an algorithm intended for implementation on it, which is considered the first computer program. Lovelace’s insights into the potential of computers to go beyond mere calculations laid the groundwork for modern computing. Despite her contributions, she faced societal challenges due to her gender, but her legacy endures as a pioneer in computer science.
